A ‘staff’ implies a system of graphics used for the purpose of reading notes with four spaces and five lines. Such spaces and lines are areas where musical notes and alphabets are placed, which include A, B, C, D, E, F and G. In modern times, each of the spaces and lines present in these staff notes house specific pitches. At the starting of every staff, a particular symbol is placed, which is representative of a variety of pitches, such as high pitch, medium pitch and low pitch. This symbol is known as the ‘bass clef staff’ in musical notes.

The symbol representing the bass clef staff is shaped like a ear and is used specifically for representing a setoff pitches ranging from low to medium. The type of music that is specified for this staff is mainly specific for low to medium pitch playing instruments like the lower range of the piano, basses, trombones and bassoons.

For reading the pitch represented by the bass clef note, one must consider the spaces present in the staff. Four spaces are present in each of the five lines with each space representing a particular pitch. Beginning from the bottom of the bass clef staff, the order of these pitches are A, C, E and G. Lower spaces are representative of lower pitches. The higher spaces are representative of a higher pitch. This implies that when a note is present in the bottom space of a line, it implies that the singer or musician is required to use pitch A for singing or playing. When a higher space contains the note, the musician or singer will be required to count the number of spaces and then check for the adjacent letters. For example: when a musician or singer will discover the note to be present in the third place, he or she can understand the pitch by counting the letters in a sequence of three. This means the note for the pitch if E, since it is the third letter as per the sequence in the bass clef note.
